Possible Worlds by gerald keaney and the gerald keaneys
Our 2023 album 'Possible Worlds' launches "cog rock" as a music genre. Instead of listening to dumb shit like Death in June or Current 93 while writing bigoted etc nonsense on the interwebs, by listening to cognitively stimulating material, people are encouraged to start making sense.
As "cog rock," 'Possible Worlds' plays with ideas from scientists and mathematicians. Track 3 mentions Roger Penrose's cosmology. The album cover features one of his hand drawn graphics, referred to in the song. The same song also mentions Avi Leob's theory about Ou Mua Mua as alien tech. We used Stephen Wolfram's 'Mathematica' graphix in the zine (see Merch).
We are not, however, qualified to comment publicly on the veracity of scientific positions, nor on the consistency of abstract mathematics. So we won't be sending "Possible Worlds' to Kip Thorne and demanding that he recognize us as the next Fab Four Einsteins. We were tempted --- worries about being labelled a "crackpot" no doubt act as a chill on intellectual life. Perhaps one reason physics is at an impasse is not so much that "crackpots" run riot, as that the people with the kudos get it by publishing respectable dead ends. .
There are good deals to be had at the Inala markets and pretty sure there is not really a pub there w/ greasy walls :) 161.

Goodbye to Glenys Weatherill, collaborator and supporter. Also vale Edo an (inside) feline inspiration to the band for many years, and Oscar a canine fan, who particularly liked our song "5 Seconds to Live."
Bibliographic Erratum
...oops... in N-possible Worlds that should be 'Tractatus.' Also Whitehead is usually credited as the first author of the 'Principia.' Sorry Alfie.
